Question

A recipe for making 3 dozen muffins requires 1 1/2 cups of flour. How many cups of flour are required to make 5 dozen of the same muffins?

Answer 1

3 dozen muffins equals 1 1/2 cups of flour divide by 3 to get 1/2 so each dozen takes 1/2 cup of flour 1/2 x 5 = 2 1/2 so for 5 dozen muffins you need 2 1/2 cups of flour
